Stephen Farrelly (born 28 January 1978) is an Irish professional wrestler. He is signed to WWE, where he performs on the Raw brand under the ring name Sheamus.

Prior to joining WWE, he wrestled on the European independent circuit. After becoming part of WWE's main roster in 2009, he went on to become a four-time world champion, having held the WWE Championship three times and WWE's World Heavyweight Championship once. He is the first Irish world champion in WWE history, and is also a three-time United States Champion and a five-time tag team champion (four times for Raw, once for SmackDown) with his tag team partner Cesaro. In addition to these championships, he also won the 2010 King of the Ring tournament, the 2012 Royal Rumble match, and the 2015 Money in the Bank ladder match, making him the second wrestler (after Edge) to achieve all three accomplishments. Outside of wrestling he also runs a successful fitness YouTube channel called Celtic Warrior Workouts and has made multiple appearances in film and television.
